@Pawky Strand bamboo is made using crushed strips of bamboo. The strips are woven together and pressed together using resin and heat. Because of this process, the material is about 3 times harder than red oak. It makes a great material.

JL7- I used plywood on this one because the flooring we have is engineered with a birch substrate. The plywood has a regular bamboo core. I should have taken a picture of the endgrain on this one…it looks really awesome.

I’ll have to make some more of this style, as I got a really good response from the family. If I do, I’ll make sure I get some better pictures.

I think I gave a piece of this material to WoodArtbyJR last time he was up at my work. We’ll have to see what he can make out of it. Nothing short of amazing I would expect. Jim…

Very nice Eric. Can’t wait to get some more.Just got back from my Christmas cruise and to be honest I haven’t done anything with that particular piece. As soon as I do I WILL post it. Now that vacation is over it is time to get back to work. Eric, I hope you and yours had a very nice holiday.
